Package: libvirt-bin
Version: 0.9.12-5
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

The manpage for virsh lists an example for the create command, which is incorrect and I believe also inconsequent with general usage of virsh. For ease of use:

           Example

            virsh dumpxml <domain-id> > domain.xml
            vi domain.xml (or make changes with your other text editor)
            virsh create < domain.xml

root at cheetah:~/lizard-vnc# virsh create < lizard-vnc.xml
error: command 'create' requires <file> option

virsh create lizard-vnc.xml did work without a problem. I believe this is a problem with the manpage but please correct me if I'm wrong.
